Set for multi-week absence
Wynder will miss the next six weeks due to the ankle injury he sustained against the Dynamo, according to manager Greg Vanney.
Analysis: Wynder exited the previous match with the injury, and Vanney revealed that the recovery timeline will be around six weeks. That means Wynder won't return to the squad until early to mid-October at best. This shouldn't have a big impact on fantasy, however, as Wynder has been limited to just 12 starts in 19 appearances with no goals or assists in 2026.
Leaves Houston game with injury
Wynder was forced to abandon Saturday's 1-0 loss to Houston Dynamo after suffering an injury.
Analysis: Wynder was unable to put weight on his right foot as he left the pitch in the 54th minute of the loss. This puts the midfielder at risk of missing a few games during the busy schedule ahead, with Isaiah Parente replacing him in the last match and providing backup if required. Wynder has been active in defensive midfield lately, so his absence would hurt the teams in terms of ball recovery and distribution.
